I'm a semi-happy
soulseek user.
I just got it up and running and have been using it for a few days now.
Searches kill me they're so fucking slow. The upside is I often find what I want; and even if queued initially I'm finding that I'll eventually get it. Though the program isn't showing any intelligence in terms of the fact that a certain song having the same size and sharing a few nouns and bitrate IS THE SAME SONG. Still, at least I'm finding what I want mp3-wise, unlike kazaa/winmx.
The chats look promising (really cool and intersting musical genres have very crowded chats) but i can't seem to browse anyone which makes them useless. this is very likely my fault as i'm behind a router that i haven't configured properly yet. soulseek FAQ has helpfully let me know what ports to open so with some luck i can fix this.
Selection is great; but is nowhere near the fucking brilliance that audiogalaxy was. I still await that audiogalaxy replacement but for now soulseek will do.
